Yes, if you move things a few pixels apart they keep their position, it gets
broken again if one of them (normally the clock) gets big enough to go over
the space, as this happens with day/month changes. It also seems to only
happen when on a screen which doesnt have a position of +0+0 i.e a monitor
on the right, doesnt matter whether primary or secondary.

Its not always the clock that changes position, its often the volume/systray
for me.
